Trying to make a new tileset

Post by KukY »

I want to make a new tileset.
What do I need to do?
Or I only have to make it in Photoshop and paste it?

Hmm, it made me a bit curious, what kind of tileset would that be? :rolleyes:

Well, I want to make a tileset that will have random textures, not theme sorted like ones that exist...

Hrm. Upload it somewhere, for now? Kamaze probably just forgot to restore it after the last crash. Ask him to restore it.

Ok, I used my free time to go out and hunt for texture materials!
I got 33 pretty good, altough taken with mobile phone, 2560x1920 pix(5 Mpix) photos.
I will make 512x512 textures from them.
Some will be terrain textures, some will be other textures that can be useful for something.
I am starting to 'shop them NOW.

So, if you have more pics of natural terrain, please upload them here, because variety of textures around my building isn't very big...

Well, I made some textures out of pictures that I took: http://www.mysterymayhem.co.uk/Mysterye ... xtures.zip. They could be useful.
